For and While loops differ in anyways?

As a general rule of thumb:
Use a for loop if you know how many iterations are to be completed, such as iterating through a vector.
Use a while loop in the opposite way; when you can't be sure how many iterations will be completed, which is why we use while for game loops and not for, haha.

"for" is the easiest way to implement a loop condition based on a count variable (you can declare and test the condition in the same command), "while" is used when the loop is based on another type of condition.

they both have basically the same function. but for loop is more frequently probably for convenience sake ...

1- for has its condition , ckeck & end of in/decrement in the same line
=>Which is good for understanding and making the code shorter
2-for is only used in case of you know the number of iterations .
nice to meet you .

both of them functions in a same way but in for loop instilization condition Inc/Dec is done in a same line which makes our program short and it will be much easier to understand

there are instances where one might be more convenient to use, as @Cohen Creber has pointed out. however, you can use for loops even when you do not know how many iterations; and while loop when you know how many iterations.
